I'm rather large (particularly compared to the Japanese) but not particularly intimidating unless I have to be.
On one morning commute, we had one of the 20is bosozoku (motorcycle gang) types seated in a crowded subway car and, as it turned a corner and shifted, a middle aged guy accidentally stepped on his outstretched feet.
Even though the guy quickly apologized, the seated bosozoku begin to get really belligerent. The Japanese in the area started moving as far away as possible from the brat as it looked like a pending fight. I don't like fights but I don't like bullies either. So as they moved away, I worked myself toward him. Just as he was about to get up and take a swing at the guy, I firmly placed my size 12 foot on his size 8 and said (in Japanese) "He apologized. Let it go or I'll get you off at the next stop to visit with subway security!"
He quickly sank back into his seat and behaved himself until my stop four or five stations later. I have seen subway security work in far less serious incidents than this (such as a belligerent drunk). The usually have four or five fairly burly cops with truncheons board the car a few stops later and quickly take the perp off the train. What happens after that, I'm not sure. But I do know that the Japanese do not like their train schedules disrupted even by the less than 60 seconds or so which it takes to remove one of these perps.
Great story...I hope everybody here reads it, because it really shows that no matter the country or race, thug behavior is thug behavior. Think Clockwork Orange.
The only problem is that here in the US, one particular group has been given a free pass on its thug behavior. This is unfortunate for blacks, because most of the thugs’ victims (like the older man in this video) are also black and I’m sure the average black person is not thrilled by this either. I live in a small town with an area where there are a lot of black people who keep a shotgun handy...not because of whites, but because of black drug thugs.
We’ve got to demand the same standards for everybody in the US. No passes on bad behavior because of melanin content.
But obviously white liberal judges, who keep releasing these thugs onto the community, think it’s just fine, since the judges don’t take the subway but get driven to work in black cars, don’t have to travel in public outside of working hours, and don’t live in any place where they might come into even casual contact with the thug contingent.
